Apple Script

Yesterday I spent a lot of time with Apple Script. It is not as easy as they make you believe it will be, but then, it’s free! I was able to record a script that would open all the Quark files of one issue of Working Smarter so I could make them into PDFs, but then to change the script so that it could be used for the next issue, I wasn’t able to do. There’s no search and replace in Apple Script, for one thing. I tried cutting and pasting the script into Text Edit Plus, doing the search and replace there, then pasting the whole thing back into Script Editor. I kept getting error messages when I tried to run the script.
